pleasanton

Pleasanton wallmart has 4 Polacanthus/E's but still no sign of the G. Looking foreward to more stupid Polacanthus repaints. I swear this time I'm limiting myself to 1 and no repaints.

Hey Aferguson

Do you think you could start a different thread for 109G finds and discussion? I really have 109E's out the wazoo and dont really care to find or discuss them. Also has anybody found the 109g in wallmart yet?

Way to Go 21st.

BF-109G spotted

Hey guys. I broke a track on my RC stuart tank so I thought I'd just go on into 21st headquarters and pick up a new one. It took some doing but I figured out where they were located and popped on in this morning. I dont think they appreciate visitors much so dont try this yourself. But when I was th...

On aircraft like the FW-190 you run into a problem, a wing that is efficient at 390 mph is usually not very efficient at 100 mph. This can pose a problem when you are trying to land. The best way to deal with this is to change the shape of the wing and that is exactly what flaps do. Lowering the fla...

Split flaps

There are four types of flaps. 1. Plain Flaps 2.Split Flaps 3. Slotted Flaps 4. Fowler Flaps A plain Flap is attatched to the wing with a hinge and simply deflects downward. It looks a lot like a door on the back of the wing is being deflected down when they are extended. A Split flap is hinged only...
